Message to me-"your firefox profile cannot be loaded.

It may be missing or inaccessible. "A folder appeared earlier that opened to a list of the profiles that I saved it, but when I followed the instructions to change the name of the default profile, it doesn't always work. Shoul I moved the folder with the profile somewhere. Right now it is on the applications page.
Thank you! Betty McD
I use Safari, because I can't get Firefox to come. I uninstalled Firefox on applications to clear out, but it only shows this message. B.

See:

A likely cause is a problem with the file profiles.ini and the profile marked as the default value = 1 in this file is no longer present on the hard drive.

  • Windows: %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\
    C:\Users\ < user > < profile > \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\.
  • Linux: ~/.mozilla/firefox/
  • Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox /.

You can use one of them to make the Creation/use of a new default profile for Firefox:

  • Remove the profiles.ini file to force Firefox to create a new default profile
  • Use the Profile Manager to create a new profile
  • Use "Choose a folder" when you create a new profile to select the location of a lost profile and recover this profile

    Greetings,

    I work with a Windows 7 computer. Access is via a password protected user account. When I provide the password, I get a message indicating that the user profile cannot be loaded.

    I would like to provide the exact text of the error, but it is in Spanish and I'm sure you get the picture. I always write in English to maximize my audience.

    I already tried to start in safe mode and access the computer with the administrator account to the default system, but apparently that was disbled, and I can only connect with the above user account...

    ... that the profile cannot be loaded.

    Any help in finding ways to access the machine would be great.

  • Error message: unable to load your Firefox profile. It may be missing or inaccessible

    I know that others have had this problem but none of the validated answers turned out to be viable. When I try to start Firefox, the browser does not open and I see the following message appears: "unable to load your Firefox profile. It may be missing or inaccessible. "I am running Windows 8.1.

    It's what happened leading up to this problem. I was passing through normally when I received a pop up message that says a threat has been detected, and Mozilla had a security patch that I have to download. This is the expedition of phishing malware believer, I closed the browser and restart the computer without having to download anything. When I restarted the computer, everything was normal and I googled for information on what had just happened, to see if I really needed a security patch. A forum suggested that I already have a virus/malware that caused the popup, and that I should deal with the possibility that updating Firefox. Then I refreshed Firefox, which seemed harmless enough. The update took the time, so I finally closed the window to refresh. Maybe I should let the window update but it was taken way too long - after that it's my problem to start with the error message.

    Since then, I've uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox. I also deleted the profile folder in the hope that it would force the creation of a new folder. Nothing has worked. Someone has suggestions for Firefox run again?

    Thank you!

  • When I try to open firefox, it says "cannot load your Firefox profile. It may be missing or inaccessible. » ?

    The reason why I deleted my firefox profile on my MAC and uninstalled firefox is because it was not appearing in the application menu or the dock and I have found whenever I wanted to use it. I couldn't put it on the dock or anything like that.
    When I downloaded again and tried to start it, there was the error message, "unable to load your Firefox profile. It may be missing or inaccessible. "And now I can't use it at all.

    You must remove the file profiles.ini so because Firefox registers all the profiles you see in the Profile Manager in this file and delete the file on disk, Firefox will display this error message.

    Otherwise, you will need to use the Profile Manager to create a new profile.

  • Cannot load your Firefox profile. It may be missing or inaccessible.

    You must locate the profiles.ini file and delete this file or use the Profile Manager to create a new profile.

    See:

      If you have an existing profile, then click on "Choose a folder" in the Profile Manager and navigate to the location of a profile lost to recover this profile
      https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/managing+profiles

    You should find the file profiles.ini in this hidden place:

      * C:\Users\ < user > \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\
    • Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox /.
    • Linux: ~/.mozilla/firefox/

    If you cannot connect to your admin account, no tutorials can help you because they need you to connect to an administrator account to carry out the instructions.

    See if the following can get an admin account...

    Go to Safe Mode...

    Restart your computer > immediately and repeatedly pressing the F8 key until you see a black and white screen. The top/down arrow and select Mode safe mode with networking.

    Now, while in safe mode, you perform one of the following?

    1 can connect to your account admin without the error message?
    If so, do. Then do a system restore. Choose a date when you were free to login to your account admin as your restore point.

    If the system restore does not slove the problem, then use this tutorial
